He had basically the same statistics as Rex did when the Giants won the super bowl. I can contribute more to the posts, but there is a real lack of any love for Rex being shown which is ridiculous. I guess only so many of us have a real eye for talent(me).
You haven't shown yet any ability to contribute more to this site. I mean you haven't said a thing about any other position. All you've done is tell us how spectacularly awesome Rex is and how we're all stupid for not seeing it.

Have you seen his reasoning for his love for Rex? What do you expect?

Re: Who do you want to start at QB?

Really premature to call him the worst quarterback to ever play in the super bowl since that was his first full season as a starting quarterback.

Re: Who do you want to start at QB?

I'm sure we would have pursued Grossman in 2003 if we hadn't already spent a first rounder on Ramsey the year before. I think we traded down to get Taylor Jacobs but I'm not sure. That whole Bears team played like crap in that super bowl, I think they gave up nearly 200 yards rushing to the Colts, a team that rarely achieves those figures. There were fumbles, breakdowns in coverages, but that's okay we'll just blame it all on Rex.

Matty just thinks he's important and knowledgable because he's an administrator on this site, lol. Rex will prove to be both one of the most unheralded free agent additions by the Redskins and most important.

Re: Who do you want to start at QB?

Hehe.. Jonny's love for Rex Grossman is blinded him from the truth. It wouldn't matter if Rex had more turnovers then TD's in his 3 games last year. HE'S A GUNSLINGER AND HE LOVES HIM!!!

It's going to be John Beck as our starting QB Jonny.. Sorry to disapoint you man.

Re: Who do you want to start at QB?

Last night reinforced Beck for me.. He's got the mobility to avoid some of the rush. They are both accurate and have decent arm strength. Rex still scares me because of his penchant for turnovers. He's still too much of a HTM (human turnover machine) for my tastes. Our defense is going to keep us in games this year, the QB just needs to not screw it up.

Re: Who do you want to start at QB?

The QB's appear to be pretty even rating wise. I cast my vote on Grossman only because he seems to get the ball in the endzone. They both have thrown a pick so I don't understand the turnover argument.

The good news is that there are 2 QB's who can run the offense. The position that was under the most scruitiny during this past offseason is the same position that I feel the best about at this time.
